But we have no solution for today," Giner told Russian outlet Sport24."When we receive an offer, we always try to negotiate openly."Indeed, we were visited by the vice-president of Monaco [Vadim Vasilyev] and made a proposal for Golovin. "Chelsea? There is no closed arrangement with them. But the question of his transition to another club will be decided, I think, in the next couple of days."Golovin appeared in all five of Russia's matches at the World Cup, scoring once in the tournament-opening 5-0 win over Saudi Arabia.</blockquote>
